Mrs Jackye Biehl - Administrator

We are so thankful that God has allowed us to be involved in the lives of children. We have marvelous parents who care deeply about their children, and children who want to learn and grow, both academically and spiritually. Our primary goal is that our children have the opportunity to experience a dynamic educational environment where they learn to love learning and grow and develop as Godly people.

I love this quote: “It is better to build a child than repair a man.” And, the scripture below reminds me that what we are doing at home or at school lays the foundation for the legacy we will leave behind. I pray we finish well and leave a living legacy through our children that reflects Jesus to the world.

2 Cor. 3:2-3, “You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everybody. You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.”

Personal Testimony

I came to know Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior when I was 30 years old. As a child, I attended church each week, but I only knew that Jesus had died for the sins of the world. That information had no personal meaning to me as an individual and I did not understand who Jesus was and what His sacrifice for my sin really meant. During a very difficult time in my life and through a series of amazing circumstances that could only be attributed to the hand of God, my eyes and heart were no longer blind and I gratefully received Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. I am deeply thankful that He gave His life for mine and I treasure the gift of Jesus! It continues to be the desire of my heart to know Him and make Him known.

General Goals

That FBA become the best school in the metro area:

That we always give God the glory for whatever success we have:

That our students go on from FBA and do great things in the world.

Responsibilities

My responsibility as administrator is to oversee all aspects of school: staffing, curriculum, registration, discipline, and budget. There are several goals I would hope to achieve. First that we partner with the parents in equipping these children to know God’s Word and apply it in their everyday lives. Second to make certain that FBA becomes the best school in this area and third, that our children know they are uniquely created by God and feel valued as individuals.
